The conference will emphasize current state of the art in teaching
computer science and related topics using Functional Programming
Languages. Functional languages are to be understood in a broad
sense, including lazy functional languages, strict functional
languages, languages with a powerful functional subset (e.g.
Scheme) and purely algebraic specification methods.

Topics include experience in teaching a functional programming
language as a first programming language and its consequences
for other courses; explore the place of the Functional
Programming paradigm in the curricula in computing at the BS, MS
and PhD levels. The conference will be particularly interested in
discussing experiences of using functional languages or
functional formalisms in teaching of other computer science
topics. For example, functional languages have been used to
teach:

Papers accepted for the conference must contain material not
presented previously in any formal forum.

Submissions will be judged on relevance, originality,
significance, correctness, and clarity. Each paper should
explain its contribution in both general and technical terms,
identifying what has been accomplished, saying why it is
significant, and comparing it with previous work. Authors should
make every effort to make the technical content of their papers
understandable to a broad audience.

Accepted papers will appear in a technical report to be
distributed at the conference. It is intended to publish the
proceedings in the Springer LNCS series. Authors of accepted
papers will be expected to sign a copyright release form.

Both electronic and postal submissions will be accepted.
Authors should submit the full paper (up to 10 pages, typeset
10-point on 16-point spacing in two-column conference style
format, double-sided if possible).

Each submission (postal or electronic) should be accompanied by
electronic mail to greentech@glas.apc.org, with a single postal
address and electronic mail address for communication, complete
title, author and affiliation information, and an ABSTRACT of
the paper. This email should be send in plain ascii form.

Electronic submissions could be send as either
1) compressed uuencoded postscript file, or
2) LaTeX file
to greentech@glas.apc.org Please DO NOT send plain postscript
files to avoid any problems with mailers.

As an alternative to electronic submission 12 copies of the full
paper should be posted to:
